Please excuse the amount of photos today, but I just love how they came out. On Fridays and the weekend I like to have Chris take my pictures- it's just quicker- and he's really become quite good at recognizing good light and nice backgrounds. Today we were running all over town doing errands- like finally going grocery shopping- but I still wanted to look nice. This is actually the same outfit I wore to NYC on Tuesday, but I just loved it so much I wore it again! I've been on the hunt for the perfect striped dress forever, and I think I've found it! The sweet ladies at Spotted Moth were kind enough to send it over, and I have to say I'm obsessed. I love the sweetheart neckline and the buttons up the back, but the best part is that the stripes are grey enough to pass for black or blue, making it that much more versatile. I went for blue today, pairing it with a blue belt and my new-to-me blue and white wing-tips.

Anyways, the day became ungodly hot so after our grocery shopping we headed down to the park to sit seaside and enjoy each other's company. This park is one of the nicest places in town, and when we showed up we discovered they were performing Twelfth Night in the rose garden!

That dress is a really flattering cut, and goes nicely, but unexpectedly, with those shoes. In some of the pictures, with the light, the stripes could even be sage green. I bet you'll have that dress for years and years.

The dress is totally a gem, and the styling is fantastic. Can we talk about those wingtips? Seriously Julie, where are you thrifting? Because apparently I've been hitting all the wrong thrift stores in the greater Boston area. I never manage to find shoes in decent shape. Never mind that these are totally awesome.

what a stunning look! the pony tail is so incredible on you. ticktockvintage just did a post with a pony tail and it made me realize how underrated they are (at least in my mind) - gotta bring it back!

Hey there :)Noticed you were blogging from Boston. I am from the area as well and wanted to let you know that we will be getting together a few bloggers on August 5th or 6th, if your interested, let me know<3
